Should the applicator pad be washed or just replaced after a certain number of uses?

I was mine with warm water after every application and with each of the products, cleans and works well the next time, no need to discard

I washed mine in the washer. Air dry. But I think that would only work a few times until you need to go to the store and replace it. A car wax applicator looks to me like a good replacement.

I have no idea but if you wash it, I would refrain from using any sort of fabric softener.

I have not used the pads long enough to know. I rinse them out after each use and let them dry. I switch off from one to another.

Hi Kkrome. I would say a long, long time. All you do is rinse it off when it gets too dirty. It is a fabric of some sort. Make sure you let it dry out thoroughly before you use it again. I have only had mine a couple months.

The pads can be washed between uses. I change and wash mine after each use. The pads are thick like terry towel substance..Sometimes I have to change to a clean one before a room is finished..only because we live on a ranch and cowboys carry in all sorts of stuff on their boots. The pads clean up fairly well, but some stains are left behind at times after washing, but they are clean and ready to use just the same. I have extra pads on hand.As for how long do they last? Years, but it depends on what type of floor, how often you use them, what type of scrubbing or steaming you do. These pads should last as long as your bath towel would as it's made out of the same material. The pads can be washed between uses. I change and wash mine after each use.

I would wipe the metal parts with a soft paper towel. But the fact is that that, once it's in place, the printhead should not need attention until it needs replacement.

Eventually there is a need to buy new pads. However this product used sparingly does extend the useful life of pads

If you want it to last a while, I'd hand-wash. I'm not too worried about it getting a little messed up so I have machine-washed it.

I think that wiping after use would be a better idea. IPA in the ear canal does not sound like a good idea.

I would think so as long as your using new applicator pads, and polishing rags. To be safe I would contact meguiar's to be safe. They have a full scale customer service team. Sorry, I'm not a pro.

Wash it with mild detergent and hot water, and rinse thoroughly. It should be fine after that.

Rinse out after use and clean with soap and water every few days. Ours has been used for over 6 months and looks brand new.

I would try spaying some grease first. If that doesn't last long yes replace.

I have washed mine maybe 5 or so times, but just when I take it outside. Otherwise, it doesn't need washed indoors

+Yes. Once the pad on turns white (has a white dot or white bloYes. The pad is considered done/used once a white blotch appears on the center of the pad. The pad will continue to be effective until than. I find I get about the same amount of time for the "cell" as I do for the pad..(about 12 hours of use).

I would use a nylon spatula and sponge with a little soap and gently rub it out. Clean it after each use carefully as mentioned after turning it off for about ten mins.

I received 3-hard floor cleaners 1-hard wood floor polisher 1-carpet stain scrubber 1-carpet cleaning pad Pads are suppose to be rinsed right after use before you wash them in the washer. The manual states they will need replaced after 20 uses.

They recommend reapplying after washing. My husband who uses it all the time feels that you can go a few washings before having to reapply.
